You know what I love about spring?  Of course I love how the warmer weather lets us get outside more, when the grass turns green, and how the flowers bloom.  I love all of those things.

But I also love how our food lightens up with the weather.  Temperatures start rising and I automatically start craving fresher, lighter foods.
